PLS HELPPP a complete idiot!! What is this called in 3D modelling lingo?
I have the idea in my head but I'm completely helpless in finding the right words to explain to my designer/manufacturer.
Basically, I am looking to create a cut-in fillet with an even gradual angled slope at a concave side/edge. Please refer to my, hopefully clear, hand sketch design below. The snapshot below sort of resembles the design I have in mind (only the shaded part is relevant). I believe this could be called 'filleting with variable radius' with the radius at both sides being 0?
Apologies if I'm way off or not being clear - it's extremely difficult for me to get my thoughts across without any basic knowledge so really hope the community here could help!
Thanks for any advice in advance!

you could create it by doing a bevel on the edge and then merge the ends. If some parts have to be slightly concave or at a specific angle you can adjust edges/verts manually or use a boolean.
Is the name important because you were wanting to find the right tool to help make it?
